I am new to corns. This is Sousuke. I adopted him from the local Herp Society on friday night. He is full grown or close to it and has awesome coloring but I don't know enough to identify this pattern. Can anyone identify it for me?

I think I see a few belly checks so it would be a normal corn. If I am wrong and the belly is clear, then it is a motley.
 
Looking at the dorsal pattern and the little I can see his side, I'd say a Normal/Classic Motley too. In rare cases Motleys can have some checkers in their belly - or even fully checkered belly....

Need more pics of his side and belly! :)
 
Looks like a well adjusted, healthy, 'normal' wild type corn.
I like the normals, as they have a very nice look.
The orange, yellow, red, black, and white patterns are very pleasing to look at.
Yours has a very nice yellow 'streak' that starts at the chin that they sometimes get when they get older.
Very pretty specimen. I would agree and call it a male.
Reps for adopting an adult, rather than buying a hatchling. Adults tend to be more resilient. Great choice for a new corn.
 
I think he looks normal too, but at the same time he doesn't appear to have much black- could he be hypo? The edges of his saddles are barely visible at all.
 
Until I see a better ventral, I'm going with normal as well.

Also, is there a possibility that this was a W/C? There's a strong wash of melanin running down the dorsal - stronger than I normally see in a captive bred.

More pics, please!
